The Road Trip to Hell

The road to Hell is paved with madcap adventures.

You and your friends from college are headed out on the road for your biggest exploit yet. You’re en route to the new and controversial theme park; Underworld World, a Hell inspired tourist trap. As soon as everyone heard that Moms For Our Values were going to be picketing you knew you had to see it for yourself before the place got closed down.

Luckily one of you owns a spacious RV that has plenty… well, a passable amount of room for you and your crew. Summer break has just started, so you have plenty of time to make it cross country from Bright Lights University in California to the New England based Underworld World. You can be sure that in a world that (whether you know it or not) has tons of actual supernatural factors at play you’ll be finding trouble well before you get to the infamous theme park.

Think of Buffy the Vampire Slayer as a traveling, college buddy, road comedy. The main focus will be to bring the funny, but with heavy doses of romance, adventure and supernatural horror. Like Buffy or other media in its vein, I’d like the characters and situations to play with trope fodder without falling into stereotypes. Not only should you guys think about tropes, but it would be great if you thought about ways to subvert them in creative ways.

Some of you will be supernatural beings under the guise of regular college students, some of you will in fact be regular college students. I’d like there to be a mix and also you should consider playing as someone who has no idea that the supernatural is real.
